125:

Whoever harasses
an innocent man,
    a man pure, without blemish:
the evil comes right back to the fool
like fine dust
    thrown against the wind.

 

126*126:

Some are born     in the human womb,
evildoers         in hell,
those on the good course go
                    to heaven,
while those without effluent:
                    totally unbound.

 




126: Heaven and hell, in the Buddhist view of the cosmos, are not eternal states. One may be reborn on one of the various levels of heaven or hell as the result of one's kamma on the human plane, and then leave that level when that particular store of kamma wears out.
